builder, demolition expert, and junior -- i wouldn't even call myself a junior carpenter. i was just there helping the actual carpenter do his job. i was, like, cool. you want me to pick this up? i think the hardest part was just waking up at 4:30. that was the hardest part. the hardest part is always waking up. once you're on the job, you just got to be where your feet are at. >> those feet need size 18 shoes. jordan the giant said the toughest part was not seeing his family while he was away from home from this train and trial tracks from the rugby just worth $4,000 to being told he wasn't good enough, and now a $60 million plus-plus contract extension. playing in the super bowl. he's a great example of betting on yourself as many of these players have. >> yeah. who needs rugby when you have got football that will take you to the super bowl? coy wire, thank you. well, it is the top of the

hour on "cnn newsroom." i'm bianna golodryga. >> i'm victor blackwell. in just a few hours, we'll see president biden in primetime. this will be his first state of the union address before a divided congress. the speech will offer the president his largest television audience of the year, and unlike last year when nancy pelosi sat behind the president, the house speaker seat will be occupied by republican kevin mccarthy. his party holds a slim majority in the house, and the president said he will extend his hand. >> he'll go across the aisle for veterans and the opioid epidemic. he expects to lay out his successes setting up what insiders say is a test run for his re-election bid. manu raju and phil mattingly are at the white house. give us a preview of what we can expect tonight. >> i think the president will try to connect. when you talk to his advisers,

connect what they view of critical accomplishments to what they know they still need to accomplish the year or two ahead. it's critical because they recognize that there is some -- to some degree a disconnect between twhat they have accomplished. you can look at poll over poll over poll over the course of the last serve weeks where there's not a sense of resonance in those accomplishments, although from a legislative perspective especially there's a very clear record that they can point to. that would be one component. the president to say the state of the union is strong, however, there is still more to be done. progress, but a job not finished yet, and finishing the job is something you hear repeatedly from aides. the president will stress of the utmost importance when he lays out his agenda for what's next. you guys make a critical point here. the president despite the fact that this is definitely a new era of partisan warfare with the house republican majority is not expected to make any political attacks. he will make clear where there are differences of opinion, particularly on issues like the debt limit, going forward.

however, that olive branch that he plans to lay out there is not just one that is coming with no basis. he has two years of bipartisan accomplishments on things like infrastructure, on the chips and science act that he will point to and a slate of agenda items he believes that republicans support at least to some degree and he will seek to highlight those. guys, you make a critical point here for a president that in the weeks ahead is expected to launch a re-election campaign, this is a primetime moment in front of tens of millions of americans where they want to lay out what the white house has done, what this administration has accomplished, and what they believe they can do going forward. those are not differentiating issues. they connect with one another, and part of the president's job tonight is to tell the story that connects both at home on the domestic side, on the economic side, and abroad on the foreign policy side, how they believe the accomplishments of the first two years connect to the years ahead and connect to a likely re-election campaign. >> let's take it now to capitol hill, and manu, how republicans are preparing for the president's speech.

>> reporter: yeah, they're preparing and they know full well that there will be tens of millions of people watching this speech, and they too will be under the microscope because for the first time kevin mccarthy will be sitting behind the president, a divided congress, a republican-led house, and mccarthy behind the scenes counseling his members that this will be something that people could hear you speak. if you are overheard talking or saying something, the microphones could pick up those conversations, so be careful about those conversations. he told his members, and he said also be careful about what you are watching on your phone. photographers will be zooming in on members of congress who are sitting on the house floor. all of which is very clear. kevin mccarthy understands the optics here, and he wants to show the republicans as the reasonable opposition party, not a caricature like he believes the white house will try to portray them as. >> there are times hopefully we can agree. there are times we're probably going to disagree, but we're

members of congress. we have a code of ethics on how we should portray ourselves and also do our jobs and that's kw exactly what we'll do. no childish games tearing up a speech. that's political play. >> what if he comes after you and maga republicans? will that make things for difficult and get a deal on the debt limit and the like? >> i think it looks very poorly on the president. he's the leader of the free world and that's what he wants to spend his time on? >> reporter: so that is one of the big things that republicans will be listening for tonight. how exactly does the white house message how they'll deal with the thorny issue of raising the debt limit. how will president biden address that issue with republicans because that is really the one issue in which congress has to get done over the next few months. the rest of things that biden will lay out tonight almost certainly will not get done, if it's things such as raising the -- imposing a new assault weapons ban or imposing taxes on billionaires, things that democrats like, but republicans

will reject full stop. so the question will be on that major issue that they have to deal with, what will they say, and will he say anything to poke republicans in the eye? kevin mccarthy there warning president biden not to go that route. >> manu raju, thank you. manu and phil, stay with us. let's bring in our cnn political commentator and cnn historian. trump, obama, george w. bush, clinton, all entered office with their party holding both chambers in congress, and then at some point at least one of them flipped. ron brownstein writes for cnn.com, we saw a breadth, the spectrum of responses. what are you expecting from the president tonight? >> i'm expecting president biden to follow president obama's approach. i expect him to congratulate the republicans for winning the house.

i expect him to welcome the new speaker of the house. by the way, george w. bush welcomed nancy pelosi and made a point of the fact that she was the first woman speaker. i expect him also to talk about the ways that the parties can work together, but there's one big difference that gives president biden an advantage over president obama. >> what's that? >> he can point to the fact that unity has already brought results, that the 117th congress saw republicans and democrats voting for a number of measures. you know, in our system, even if the democrats control the senate, they still need the republicans to avoid a filibuster. so he can say, you know, people, when we work together, this is what we achieve, and he can go down and list all the achievements of the 117th congress. he's not only going to talk about unity, but he's going to show that unity works and is effective. >> and tim talks about unity. there are a few things that divided the country sadly more

than the pandemic over the past few years, and we know now that the emergency programs offered by the administration surrounding the pandemic will end on may 11th. there had been a lot of pressure to end these programs sooner. is now the time to do that? >> well, i think unfortunately, this speaks to the reality that the democratic administration doesn't really have much of a choice. they're being forced into this. the question really at hand right now is how do you make perm permanent some of the requirements of provision of safety to offer, whether it's keeping people on medicaid roles that need it, making sure that people can afford their vaccines as we continue to tell them to protect themselves from future waves of this virus, and making sure that people aren't put out by having to pay for testing. so that really is the focus here, and you're right. unfortunately people do want the president to move on even though.

pandemic continues to take nearly 400 lives a day here, and yet i think there is an opportunity to pivot off of everything the government was able to do for people during the pandemic to make those things permanent. >> phil, i would like you to pull the thread of your reporting a bit more here on the tough balance the president has to make tonight. of course, he wants to talk about what his administration has accomplished thus far. this is the spring board to the 2024 run, but his advisers know that overplaying some of the economic advantages through legislation that the american people have not felt yet can be counterproductive. >> reporter: look. i don't think there's any question about that, and any time you talk to white house advisers, they very much want to highlight what they've accomplished and they always pause and caveat with the idea they're not done. it's several times throughout the course of these remarks and it's an understanding that on the economy while there has been a rapid economic recovery in the

wake of the pandemic, and certainly just in the last seven or eight days, you've seen blockbuster jobs numbers, growth has been durable, even inflation starting to deceleratie over th course of the last few mopnths, but people are still feeling inflation, and that needs to be reflected. it's a difficult balancing act, but one that i think is really central to how the president and his advisers have prepared for this moment, understanding that they can't look like they're out of touch with where the american public is. however, they believe that there's not necessarily a full grasp of what they've accomplished and just how dramatic things have changed over the course of the last 2 1/2 years and how they thread together that story is critical. i think the president is viewing this when you talk to his advisers is just that. the necessity of telling a story, not just giving a laundry list of accomplishments and a laundry lis of priorities going forward, be ut how you knit tha together going forward, and how it lands for the american public as they watch this speech or see

clips on social media over the coming days. >> and foreign policy is expected to come up as well. not just ukraine, but u.s./china relations and this was prior to the chinese surveillance balloon and the debacle that has fallen from that with democrats and republicans now having somewhat different approaches into response as to how the president should have approached it. you tweeted about this though in terms of what the president should say, specifically related to the balloon, and you said, beware of letting this balloon become your sputnik moment. what do you mean by that? >> i tweeted that before our magnificent military shot it down. i'm not in the business. i might have told the american people about a day and a half earlier that we were going to take care of this. the pentagon had a not great briefing, but the president did the right thing, and our military did it the right way, and no one was hurt, and there was no property damaged except for the spy balloon. so i think the talking point

that the republicans might have had to divide our country disappeared. >> they still say it. then still say the fact that it was up in the air for three days was a national security threat. >> bianna, the reporting lately shows they've backed away from making it a top of the line story because they see the american people are satisfied with how the american people dealt with it. this is a strong suit for this president. he cannot only talk about our commitment to ukraine and freedom throughout the world, but also talk about how we use our military as we need to, to protect our homeland, and to learn about other countries' intelligence capabilities. >> manu, as we have had for several weeks now since kevin mccarthy got the gavel, had this conversation about whether republicans are moving beyond former president trump, if they're looking ahead, the selection of governor sarah huckabee sanders seems to potentially balance that former trump administration official, but now a new governor, first female governor of arkansas, what should we expect from her? >> reporter: yeah, that's an

interesting pick because given the fact that she was of course, the white house press secretary, she was someone who was very close to the former president, and someone who was selected by the republican leadership and had to get signed off not just from mccarthy, but also from mcconnell, the senate republican leader who is no ally of president -- former president trump, and wants nothing to do with former president trump going forward, but sanders, her speech will almost certainly try to portray the opposite of what joe biden is saying. she's appoipointing to problems the border, pointing to high inflation, conditiotending that administration doesn't have a plan to deal with just that. she will talk about what donald trump did in office, or maybe she will steer clare from donald trump and have a more forward-looking message. republicans and democrats will look at that message, and as republicans plan to respond and are almost certainly expected to push back against president biden's message tonight.

>> all right. we will be watching. thank you all. and be sure to join anderson cooper and jake tapper for live coverage of president biden's state of the union address. that will begin tonight at 8:00 p.m. right here on cnn. rescue crews in syria and turkey are pulling people out of the rubble there as the death toll from the devastating earthquake is now above 7,000. more on that just ahead. and many iowa residents -- idaho residents are still unable to go home after controlled release of toxic chemicals at the site of a train derailment. we're live on the ground after the break. here's a little number you'll never forget. ♪ customize and save. ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ football, housewives, football, housewives, football, housewives...

the death toll keep s rising. it's above 7,000. search dogs are digging through the debris of thousands of collapsed buildings. [ speaking non-english ] >> family of those missing anxiously wait and watch as the search teams do their work. cnn's nick paton walsh got a look at what this effort involves. >> reporter: very few of the apartment blocks in this area are standing, a building over there seems to basically be split in two, and here excavators and bare hands in turn being used to try and get to anybody who might still be alive because the hours are running short. the light is running out. it is bitterly cold, and you can see everywhere fires people have

already lit to try to keep themselves warm in these conditions. they will just get worse as will the chances of themm being able to pull their loved ones out. >> in syria, a little girl comforted her siblings as rescuers worked to pull them from the rubble. just take a look at their faces. thankfully they were both pulled out alive. a u.s. search and rescue people will arrive in the quake zone tomorrow. our spokesperson for the international rescue committee joins us now along with the florida task force 1 response team doctor joins us. this is a race against the clock right now. past quakes have shown us that the past three days are very serious in terms of survivors right now. where does your team stand now? >> allow me first to thank you for bringing awareness to this

crisis through cnn impact. with a situation as horrific as you can see in the photos, the situation couldn't be worse when we talk about freezing temperatures in addition to challenges on the ground for these rescuers. it's a race against the clock, and we're still within the first 48 hours of one of the largest earthquakes that has hit the region this century. for the time being, our numbers have exceeded thousands, more than 5,000 deaths and 23,000 injuries in both countries, syria and turkey. on the ground we've witnessed how roads have been damaged because of this earthquake, and even the aftershocks. our staff on the ground have been unable to go back to their houses if they have their houses still standing. some of them are working in cars. some of them have lost internet connection. we have been experiencing outages with mobile phones, with elect electricity, and even with gas supply. for those who have luckily didn't lose their homes, they can't go back home or if they do

go back home, they will have to endure freezing temperatures since there's no gas. there are so many challenges and within syria in specific, it's a crisis within a crisis when we talk about over 4 million people in northwest syria who have endured 12 years of conflict, but also a devastated economy, a cholera outbreak, covid-19, and so many crises with inflation. it's been really bad for these populations. >> doctor, you were crucial in the team at surfside at the con b condo collapse there in 2021. that was one tower at one location. this is more than 5,700 buildings collapsed in turkey alone. how do you approach something on this scale? >> yeah, it's really -- carefully is the best word to describe it.

you have to be very educated on hiypotheses and on how to approach it. you have the similar risk, but the difference is you have the cold which is horrible for traumatic injuries versus the heat, but we're there to try to bring some calm to the chaos which is ultimately going to be there. so you have to peel off the band-aid and start somewhere, and try to keep it as organized as possible. it's extremely hard when you see all the devastation around, and you want to help all the different ways, but as a team that trains and you have a number of teams already there, and others coming in that are training for this, we train in a certain way to get as much done as we can, and as much good as we can in an organized approach. if you let the organization go away, the chaos ensues and gets even worse. that answer is really, as organized as possible, and start somewhere, and go as much as we can.

>> these people are well experienced and know what they're doing, and work through past earthquakes. you brought up war-torn syria, and that poses another conflict in terms of how to get the goods, the food, the supplies, anything to those that are desperately needing it right now in the search and rescue process. the only crossing between syria and turkey that's been approved by the united nations for a humanitarian route has been destroyed. so what happens now? >> we've heard from unverified reports actually that this border crossing was nonoperational yesterday, but we also heard reports saying that it is working today. it is open. the thing is with the border crossing for syria, i mean, in the last few years we have had the u.n. security council voting on ensuring these border crossing points remain open for people to cross. for the time we have this one border crossing which is between northern syria and southern

turkey, and sadly we have been witnessing how -- the impact of this border crossing, if it's eventually gets deauthorized, and that means millions -- over 2 million people will be at risk of being cut off of assistance, and now with this challenge, i mean, this is an emergency within another emergency within this earthquake and with previous -- with the current winter storm and snowstorm that has been, we witnessed snow falling in northern syria. so it's just -- it's going to be more devastating to experience that, not to mention the trauma of you waking up at 4:00 a.m. to see your loved ones missing or your building collapsing. it just -- if you allow me to quote our staff in syria, he said it's the feeling of the unknown because they were in their sleep where they didn't know what to do, where to go. it was just so chaotic for them, and it was pretty traumatic. our main concern is to ensure the safety and security of our staff, and make sure they're

able to do their work and risk their lives and we see response in both countries. >> thank you both for the work that you are doing. the thousands of people who are waiting for some answer on their loved ones, i'm sure they are very grateful. for more information about how you can help, you at home, help the victims of turkey and syria, go to our website and look for our impact list. a battery caught fire in a ca cabin. we'll bring you those details up next.

a terrifying takeoff during a united airlines flight out of san diego today. the passenger's laptop battery caught fire, forcing the plane to return to the airport. we're told four people were then taken to the hospital. >> cnn's pete munnteen is with us. this seems like it could happen on any flight. what are you hearing? >> reporter: i'm hearing that this flight group followed the procedure to a tee which kept the from becoming so much worse. this is exactly why the faa has that rule that has you put lithium batteries and lithium-ion batteries in your carryon bags and not in your

checked bags because they can become so flammable. the chemical inside is very dangerous. this is flight 2664. it was on his way from san diego to newark. i'm hearing it was a battery pack, an external battery pack caught fire, and a crew used something called a thermal containment bag to keep the fire from spreading throughout the cabin. it's been on airplanes since about 2016 because of the fire risk posed by lithium batteries. the flight was only in the air for about ten minutes, but ultimately about six people had to be treated by emergency workers on the scene there. four of them went to the hospital, but this was such a big risk on board airplanes, these lithium airplanes. in fact, back in 2015, a ups flight crashed because of a shs shipment of lithium batteries on board caught fire. there is a serious risk here, and the faa and ntsb have put

out a lot of guidance about this. they are worried this could become more and more prevalent as we see these lithium batteries in more and more devices like smartphones, battery backs, they're pretty much everywhere. >> quick thinking, and these rules are in place for a reason. >> certainly. >> pete, thank you. the controlled release of toxic chemicals on a derailed train in ohio, that's now done, and there are no cars burning now. >> but residents evacuated from the town of east palestine still cannot return home until officials know that it is safe. this was the moment monday afternoon when the controlled lease began. a boom could be heard, and the boom released a plume of smoke. jason is in east palestine right now, and officials say all but one of the cars with toxic material have been removed.

how soon can residents go back home now? >> reporter: that's the big question, and the short answer is officials have no time frame on that. we pressed them on that issue because all the folks we've run into who have been evacuated out here are asking the same question, bianna. when can they go home? first what has to happen is the epa has to continue to do their testing at the site within the evacuation zone, and that includes testing the air, the water, the soil. they have to see what the safe limits are, and all that research basically isn't in yet, and so they can't move on that until that research is in, and what happened is just a little earlier, the fire chief explained what they're up against in terms of trying to get that information. >> we're referencing subject matter experts to give us that data of what safe limits are in order to get these people home. i want nothing more than to get my residents back home. i can't do that without that

data. all right? i have to know what those numbers are. >> reporter: so our drone is up live right now taking a look at the scene of the burn. just a little bit of smoke there, but again, the controlled release worked. they also told us during an update just a short while ago that there were no serious injuries throughout all of this. again, the fire is out. the ntsb can get in there, begin more of their investigation. this whole derailment seems to have been caused by some sort of a faulty axle. they'll get confirmation on that, and for all those people evacuated, they are still waiting. bianna, convvictor? >> jason carroll. thank you, jason. the state of the union address. president biden's first before a divided congress will be a new test for the president to sell his plans before a republican majority and to the american people. we'll talk about it.

for a great low rate, and nearly 60 years of quality coverage- go with the general. in just a few hours, president biden will head to the u.s. capitol to speak directly to you. tonight, the state of the union address will mark his first in front of a divided congress. this is an opportunity for the president to tout the accomplishments of his first two years in office, and test out his message for re-election. congresswoman pramila jayapal is with us. let's start with a couple of

numbers here. this is from "the washington post" over the weekend. more than 6 in 10 americans say the president has accomplished very little or nothing at -- close nothing in his first two years. what does he have to do tonight to potentially convince those 6 out of 10? >> well, victor, it's great to be with you. i think people just need to hear from the president. they need to hear him brag about the tremendous accomplishments, and the fact that he has under just this last two years created almost 11 million new jobs, brought unemployment down in this country to the lowest level in over half a century. we're building things in america again. now some of these things haven't happened across the country yet because legislation takes awhile to actually show up in districts, but, you know, i do know that seniors across the country are already feeling the effects of having $35 cap on insulin. these are all the things that i think the president will talk about tonight, and he will make

sure that people understand this is a new era where this democratic party, this president care about working people, not about the wealthiest, you know, corporations and individuals that got big tax breaks under dr donald trump, but actually caring about working people, raising taxes on the wealthiest in order to fund things that really make life better for people every day. >> so we understand that some of the plans that have been signed into law that people are not feeling the effect of those yet, but let me give you one more number. 41% of the people in this poll said that they're actually financially worse off than they were at the start of this administration. this is the highest number in the 37-year history of this poll higher than at the worst point of the great recession. so this is not so much a messmes messaging problem. people are feeling worse financially. >> yeah. i mean, look. it's true that we are coming out of one of the worst economic

crises of -- in the history of this country. covid combined with the economic crisis, that was a tremendous amount of pain that people went through under the last administration, under the last president. this president is the president that actually got shots in arms, that kept small businesses going. i don't expect that people will feel like everything is great because the reality is we've got a lot more work to do, and victor, i think we're going to hear the president tonight talk about the biggest inflationary cost that families are facing, things like child care and housing. those are the things that are still to do in the president's agenda that he laid out that we got very close to accomplishing last session, but that we are going to get done once we have majorities again. so i think you'll hear, of course, what we've done, but absolutely recognizing that americans are still feeling pain, and that this president is going to use executive action, things like raising the overtime threshold to give workers -- 30

million workers across the country. >> why hasn't he done it yet? if he can do it by executive action, why wait and do it later instead of already having it done in the first half? >> i think he's already done a lot by executive action. as you know, he raised federal contractors' minimum wages to $15. he fixed the aca glitch to get millions more health care. there's more health care -- more americans covered under the affordable care act than ever before. he has been doing that. he will continue to do that, but i think the key message here, victor, is this is a president who understands how to get things done. this is a democratic party that has delivered a lot for people. we have a lot more to do, and we will take that opportunity over the next two years, and hopefully when we get the majorities back in 2024. >> foreign policy now. the white house says do not expect the president to speak specifically about the chinese spy drone. we have been calling it a balloon. calling it a balloon makes it

sound quaint. >> yeah. >> this spy drone that traveled across the country. should he? he'll talk about china and talk about foreign policy and policy toward china, but should he talk specifically about what we watched traverse the country? >> i don't think he needs to. i think he's already spoken about this. i think he did what he needed to do, which was prioritize the safety of the american people first and foremost, and then shoot it down so that he could collect so that this administration could collect whatever equipment was on that drone, and assess, you know, what exactly happened here, but i think he handled it the right way. this is the moment to talk about his big vision, about all of the ways he's built diplomatic relations across the world in a way that frankly the last president destroyed. it was on this president to build back the credibility of the united states on the global stage, and victor, i think he's done that. >> congresswoman pramila jayapal, always appreciate you. thank you, madam. >> thank you, victor. a new report ties two crises

together. why the u.n. says climate change is partly to blame for the rise in superbugs. we'll have more on that up next. the better. that's why america's beverage companies are working g together to deliver more great tasting options with less sugar or no sugar at all. in fact, today, nearly 60% of beverages sold contain zero sugar. different sizes? check. clear calorie labels? just check. with so many options, it's easier than ever to find the balance that's right for you. more choices. less sugar. balanceus.org ♪ well, the stock is bubbling in the pot ♪ ♪ just till they taste what we've got ♪ ♪ ow, ow ♪ ♪ with a big, fresh carrot ♪ ♪ and a wholeot of cheese ♪ ♪ and the mirror from yr van is halfway down the street ♪ ♪ well, y can say that -- ♪ wait, what? i said, "someone just clipped the side view mirror right off the delivery van." when owning a small business gets real, progressive gets you right back to living the dream.

am i getting that number right? 10 million deaths a year by 2050, because of these? >> yeah. yeah, i know. it's pretty staggering. and i've got to tell you, before the pandemic, if you would have asked people in the infectious disease community what worries them the most globally, it would have been anti-microbial resistance. this idea that bacteria, viruses, even fungi, we have things that help treat these in types of infections, but it becomes more limit as as these pathogens figure out ways to evade what are the current medications that are out there. so about 5 million right now deaths associated with anti-microbial resistance. that was 2019. but just like you said, by 2050, up to 10 million. so, you know, this is a significant concern. i think part of the reason they're releasing this report is to just show people just how significant a problem this could develop into over the next several years. and that we need to have some actions in place. >> so, sanjay, do we at least know what some of the factors

are that are contributing to this increase? and if we do know, can that help solve this or slow it? >> yeah. yeah, i think some of them won't be surprising to you. you know, when you think about antibiotic resistance, a lot of people have heard this term, there are a lot of things that are driving this. but one of the biggest things is that we are over-using antibiotics. somebody has an infection, if you give antibiotics, what happens is, it may kill a certain population of the cells, but there may be some cells that were not killed by those antibiotics that will now replicate over and over again and they become these so-called super bugs. the more we use these or overuse these, the bigger problem that problem that i just described is. it's not just in people, but also in livestock, our food supply. climate change could be driving this. the same factors that warm the climate could be inducing resistance among some of these pathogens, as well. pollution, another driver. you know, it's interesting, about something like fungi, for example. fun give, it's hard to get a

fungus infection, because our bodies are 98.6 degrees. fungi don't grow really well in that temperature. as the climate warms, those pathogens start to become more acclimated to warmer temperatures, and as a result, maybe more likely to infection the human body, if that makes sense. so you can see, this is all sort of a big circle of events that kind of feeds itself. >> we know that the covid-19 pandemic compounded a lot of public health issues. is there any carryover from the pandemic influence of covid-19 on anti-microbial resistance? >> yeah, i think so, because you know, we were tracking this pretty closely. again, it's such an important topic globally. in the united states, if you sort of track between 2012, 2017, 2018, we seem to be making some progress in terms of deaths associated with anti-microbial resistance. then you go to 2020, and all of a sudden the numbers go back up.

close to 30,000 people, 29,400 people died as a result of anti-microbial resistance in 2020. many of them, 40%, while in the hospital. now, the exact relationship is, you know, is not entirely clear. but one of the things that happens is that a lot of times, even for viral infections, people inappropriately receive antibiotics. which are supposed to treat bacterial infections. that leads to an overuse of antibiotics, which again, can fuel this anti-microbial resistance. >> really disturbing information there, dr. sanjay gupta, important information to know, no less. thank you. the u.s. navy has released new images, close-up images of the chinese spy drone shot down over the atlantic and the latest from the pentagon. we have that for you, just ahead. llo 12 hours of relief. 12 hours!! not coughing? hashtag still not coughing?! mucinex dm gives you 12 hours of relief from chest congestion and any type of cough, day or night.
